Who's he supposed to be serving - you? It's his fookin' business, and
he gets to run it any way he sees fit. I don't give a rat's ass about
Gass and it's not a popularity contest anyway.

There's an old saying, "You can't blame a guy for asking." He's
asking the CPSC for something. It's up to them whether they say yes
or no. Nobody's holding a gun to their heads.

Your righteous indignation is misplaced, and mis-timed. Your beef
shouldn't be with him. If you have a beef it should be with the CPSC
- IF they essentially pass a SawStop mandate. That's a big if. When
and if that mandate happens, then you can tell me I told you so. I
won't be holding my breath.


Look at two great American inventors:

Ben Franklin
Lightning rod
Bifocals
Franklin stove
Urinary catheter
The odometer

Thomas Edison
Electric light
Phonograph
Motion picture camera
1093 various patents

Ben Franklin put his inventions into the public domain and never charged a
penny for anything.

The only thing Edison gave away was the electric chair.
